What happens during a reflexology treatment?
The first reflexology treatment begins with a full consultation including your medical history, health and lifestyle. This will establish your treatment needs and the reflexology session will be tailored to suit you.
Next follows a warm up foot massage and then the reflexology treatment, where specific reflexes are worked. During the whole treatment it is just your feet that are massaged, so you remain fully clothed. Only socks and shoes are removed. You will lie on a massage couch, be made comfortable, and offered a cosy blanket, should you feel cold.
The session will end with a relaxing foot massage. Soft music will play in the background, a few candles will burn, and you will completely relax, perhaps even fall asleep, and fully embrace the hour of relaxation and self-indulgence.
